An experimental population of fruit flies increases according to the law of exponential growth. There were 60 flies after the 2n
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

There were 10 flies originally

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have an exponential growth, we will be having a constant percentage of increase and we can set up the increase at any day using the following equation;

V = I(1+r)^d

where V is the number of flies on a particular day

I is the initial number of flies

r is the constant increase in percentage

and d is the number of days.

So we have for the second day;

60 = I(1+r)^2 ••••••(i)

For the fourth day, we have;

360 = I(1+r)^4 ••••••••(ii)

divide equation ii by i; we have;

360/60 = (1+r)^4/(1+r)^2

6 = (1+r)^2

(√6)^2 = (1+r)^2

1 + r = √6

r = √6 - 1

So we can substitute the value of r in any of the equations to get I which is the initial number of flies

Let’s use equation 1

60 = I(1 + r)^2

60 = I(1 + √6 -1)^2

60 = I(√6)^2

60 = 6I

I = 60/6

I = 10 flies

Over a 24-hour period, the tide in a harbor can be modeled by one period of a sinusoidal function. The tide measures 4.35 ft at
netineya [11]

Answer:

  f(x) = 4.35 +3.95·sin(πx/12)

Step-by-step explanation:

For problems of this sort, a sine function is used that is of the form ...

  f(x) = A + Bsin(2πx/P)

where A is the average or middle value of the oscillation, B is the one-sided amplitude, P is the period in the same units as x.

It is rare that a tide function has a period (P) of 24 hours, but we'll use that value since the problem statement requires it. The value of A is the middle value of the oscillation, 4.35 ft in this problem. The value of B is the amplitude, given as 8.3 ft -4.35 ft = 3.95 ft. Putting these values into the form gives ...

  f(x) = 4.35 + 3.95·sin(2πx/24)

The argument of the sine function can be simplified to πx/12, as in the Answer, above.

Segment AB has endpoints at −2 and 12. What is the coordinate of its midpoint?
charle [14.2K]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{5}

Find the midpoint using the midpoint formula:

m = (p1 + p2) / 2

m = (-2 + 12) / 2

m = 10 / 2

m = 5.
